Fire was caused by the pace car light wiring (allegedly).

I hope it didn’t get rear-ended. (altho nobody would get fired anyway)

Definitely a weird spot to have a fire start. And those pace cars do have those funky flashing lights.

So ALL the prior years in ALL the prior Pace cars that weren’t a SMOLDER (pronounced volt) that had ALL the same lighting including back before LED’s & Micro circuitry cut the draw MASSIVELY on the system and Chevy blames everything else.

Yep, never mind all the charger fires...

BTW I’ve spent 18 years selling parts and 12 years in Automotive repairs so it’s not like I’m a Rookie at electrics.
